Alex Charfen - Transformation Story - Moving from Vegan to Paleo and thriving

Our guest today is serial entrepreneur and passionate health advocate, Alex Charfen. Alex shares his story about living a vegan lifestyle, why he initially decided to become a vegan, and how Kevin transformed his way of thinking about health and nutrition and really give the paleo diet a chance.

Alex explains that, although the vegan diet did help him get healthier, it wasn’t a sustainable approach to his nutrition needs. Since transitioning to the paleo diet, he hasn’t looked back, has never felt better, and has significantly better health than years before. In addition to making this dietary transition, Alex also shares many other lifestyle changes he has made over the years to improve his health, increase his energy, and get better sleep.

“Anyone who transitions from what they would normally eat to unprocessed, whole foods will see a massive improvement.” Alex Charfen
